Historical roots

Bang bang bang!

Even through Glass Window, Lumian, you can hear the collision of the two young people Longsword outside.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Is there really a fight?

Trier Although dueling is popular, it is rare for someone to just pick up a weapon and do it. If there is a conflict, if you want to duel on the spot, you will still go through the entire process - first determine whether you want a cold weapon duel or Revolver to shoot each other, then sign Contract, then find a witness recognized by both parties, and finally Café Receptionist or Bar borrow guns and swords at the bar. Only such duels are legal duels and will not be stopped or arrested by Polices.

Situations like this where Longsword are used in fights over disagreements are either a precursor to a riot or a vendetta between Gangs. Real fights rarely use such cold weapons that are easily fatal.

Santa Port, or should I say Kingdom of Feynapotter's security is so bad? Lumian is surprised by this.

He came down from "Flying Bird" and on the way to Solo Hotel, he found that people in Santa Port liked to wear swords, which made him feel like he had entered the kind of environment described in classical novels.

This is actually legal!

In a maritime colony like Falin Port, no one openly carries these things, and everyone who hangs them Dagger has to hide them.

Of course, for him, this is actually a good thing.

He watched the two young men fighting to the death through the window with great interest, commenting on their fighting skills in his mind from time to time.

At this moment, a group of people trotted over from the other end of the street.

They are all Women, wearing Black-Backed White Patterns and Two-Cornered Cloth Hats, wearing black lining and brown Leather Armor, with a dark black cloak and two crossed Straight Sword behind their backs, and one Brass-Colored and Revolver on their waists. Pistol.

The leader, That One Women, is in his mid-twenties, with thick black hair that is naturally curled, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and plump red lips, making him quite beautiful.

Standing over 1.7 meters tall, she took out a Straight Sword from her back and shouted something to the two men fighting in the street with a stern expression.

Lumian only understood the word "stop" Vocabulary.

The two young men really stopped. They stood on the side of the street and accepted the scolding of the team Women, losing their previous momentum.

After a few minutes, they took their Longsword and left separately without being arrested.

Lumian took a sip of Torelle coffee, not really understanding this situation.

The language barrier is quite troublesome.

After Ludwig finished eating the food on the table while controlling the speed, Lugano returned here with an inconspicuous face.

Lumian didn't rush to ask him if he had found a black marketeer who could fake his identity. He said casually, "In Santa Port, is it legal to possess cold weapons?"

Lugano lowered the round-brimmed black hat on his head and said in a lowered voice, "Yes, this is a local custom. The Kingdom of Feynapotter government respects this tradition. Moreover, for them, having more Gaia Province people to die is also a good thing."

"Why?" Lumian asked with interest.

Lugano half covered his face with his hands, as if he was afraid of being followed.

Lumian saw this and threw the "Lie" ear clip to him.

Lugano quickly went to Washroom and changed back to his original appearance. Of course, his facial features were a little more straightened.

Only then did he feel relieved and began to explain:

"Have you heard of 'War of the Oathbreakers'?"

Lumian, who has received strict education from Aurora, responded like a conditioned reflex, "Fifth Epoch The 'War of the Oathbreakers' that started in 738? Lenburg, Massy, Segal and other small countries in central and southern China separated from the north of Kingdom of Feynapotter, and the 'War of the Oathbreakers' broke up between 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'Church' and 'Earth Mother'Church'?"

Lugano was stunned for a moment:

"Yes."

He only knew a rough idea, but the other party actually told the specific year and final result.

After a few seconds, Lugano lowered his voice again and said, "In that 'War of the Oathbreakers', the entire Gaia Province, especially the area close to the Dalege Mountains, also wanted to go out independently, but failed.

"Later, in order to guard against the locals, there were obviously high-quality Iron Ore and Coal Mine south of the Dalege Mountains, but Kingdom of Feynapotter only established Smelting Plant instead of Gun Factory. There were no locals in the troops stationed here, and the local soldiers were assigned to other places."

"'God of Knowledge and Wisdom' was once widely believed here?" Lumian couldn't help but glance at Ludwig who was enjoying dessert.

One of the keys to the independence of Central and Southern countries such as Lenburg, Massy, and Segal is that their mainstream social belief is "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" rather than "Earth Mother".

"I don't know." Lugano shook his head honestly.

He continued, "You should be very clear by now. The ancient Gaia Province was mainly composed of four types of people. One was the farmers, the second was the fishermen in Santa Port and other places, the third was the mountain people who relied on mineral deposits and hunting to survive, and the fourth was the herdsmen you are most familiar with. The latter three are very tough, like swords, and are not afraid of conflicts."

Lumian nodded after hearing this.

This is indeed the case.

Regardless of whether fishermen, mountain people, or herdsmen are relatively poor, they all have to face the cruelty of nature, fight against various dangers outside human settlements, and even have to guard against similar people with evil intentions. Swords are necessities, not decorations.

Lumian I once heard the herdsmen who were transitioning talk about the attacks of wolves and the ferocity of bandits, and I was deeply impressed by this.

Lugano Gulu drank the lemonade he just ordered and breathed a sigh of relief, "One of the three Combat Orderss of 'Earth Mother' is stationed at Gaia Province. On the one hand, he is on guard against us in the north and Lenburg in the northeast. On the other hand, he also means to monitor the locals.

"Hey, it's not strange to meet Combat Nuns in Gaia Province, Santa Port, their temperaments are different from other women..."

Lugano showed a leisurely and fascinated expression.

Combat Nuns? Lumian suddenly realized that the team just now was helping to maintain law and order.

He laughed and joked about Lugano:

"That's a nun."

Lugano said with an ambiguous smile, "'Earth Mother'Church's nuns do not keep their vows of chastity. Instead, they promise to have a number of children by a certain age. If they like you, they will take the initiative, and sometimes they will be semi-forced. What the young people here like most is to show their masculine side and brave side in front of those nuns. Maybe someone will take a fancy to you."

Promise to have as many children by how many years... This sounds a bit strange... Although this is in line with the teachings of "Earth Mother", it always reminds me of another That One "mother"... Local traditions, government connivance, religious influence, and animalistic expressions during courtship have jointly created the folk custom here of using cold weapons to fight in the streets... Lumian I didn't expect that there would be such a complicated historical origin behind such a trivial incident just now.

It's quite interesting to savor this carefully.

At this moment, Lumian suddenly understood what Aurora once said:

"If I enter college again and don't have the pressure of life, then I will study history."

Huh...Lumian slowly exhaled and said to Lugano, "Have you gained anything?"

Lugano, who was still thinking about Combat Nuns, was stunned for a moment and could not recover in time.

"You Intis people..." Lumian said "tsk".

Lugano Only then did he understand what the question was about, and said with a smile, "It's good, I found a black marketeer who is very capable and has many channels to help.

"Do you want to meet him? He is also a descendant of the Dalege people."

"Okay." Lumian drank the remaining coffee and stood up.

Trier, Fourth Level of the Catacombs.

Jenna and Franca each held a White Candles of Burning. They looked at the Ancient Tomb Chamber with the "door" open, and neither dared to go any further.

No one knows what is buried there, or whether something terrible might emerge.

If they were in the outside world, the two "Witch" could still use Divination's method to confirm the situation, but inside Catacombs, it was almost impossible to establish a close enough connection with the normal Spirit World. The results can be imagined.

You know, Lumian cannot directly use "Spirit World Traversal" to enter, but it can use "Teleportation" internally.

After hesitating for a moment, Franca handed one of his own Substitute Mirror to Jenna, then stepped solemnly, relying on spiritual premonition, and slowly approached the Ancient Tomb Chamber.

After the distance was close enough, the dim candlelight in her hand shone in, illuminating a pile of Paleness skeletons piled in the entrance area.

Light green and black mold spots have grown on it.

Franca raised White Candles in his hand and turned his attention to Depths of Tomb Chamber.

There were bones there, piled up in a mess, covering every inch of the ground. There was a Stone Sarcophagus in the middle, which had tilted and poured out a large amount of bones that looked like they were about to rot.

"It doesn't look dangerous." Franca hesitated and said.

Jenna then came closer and handed her Substitute Mirror back.

Franca looked at it for a while and said, "There is nothing valuable."

Among the various funerary objects, gemstones and other objects are missing. They should have been lost when the Catacombs was originally built. When these Ancient Tomb Chamber were opened, other things were either weathered and decayed or broken into pieces. Even the murals on the walls only have some traces left.

Jenna followed for a while and said uncertainly, "Where are the places pressed by these bones?"

"Let me see." Franca took a few steps closer, letting the invisible "Spider Silk" spread Past, entangle the pile of Paleness skeletons at the door, and help them move their positions.

Suddenly, an irregular Mirror Fragments that seemed to be painted in black Paint appeared in the firelight.

Jenna and Franca both looked at each other intently.

That, that is very similar to the Mirror World Fragment they got in Fourth Epoch Trier!

"There was a special 'Person in the Mirror' who died here?" Franca whispered to himself, "Shadows of Krismona appeared here to tell us about this? But why did he attack us again?"

Jenna was equally puzzled. She thought for a moment and said, "Why did the special 'Person in the Mirror' die here? Whose Tomb Chamber is it, or in other words, which family in ancient times?"

Franca stared for a moment, nodded solemnly and said, "This may be what we need to investigate next."

Seeing that there was nothing unusual, the two put away the Mirror Fragments and carefully searched the entire Tomb Chamber using the Unseen Spider Silk of "Pleasure Witch". They found no items marked with the identity of the tomb owner.

"Hey, let's think of a solution when we go back." Franca sighed, "Now go get Antique Tear Bottle for that employer."
