"Victor, Francis, the dragon-slaying warrior from the Holy Roman Empire!"
The fairy came to the arena and looked at the dwarf prince Liam who was kneeling on the ground and declared the winner this time.
The fateful battle between Liam and Frances not only determines the outcome, but also determines life and death.
"Now begins the next contest! Frost Giants versus Conn Knights from Annon."
After the fairy finished speaking, the scene suddenly changed. A tall giant and a thin knight appeared on the arena ring.
"Francis, you think you will get the final victory and you will die in William's hands. I have seen through your fate."
Liam wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and used all his strength to speak the final prophecy. Francis expressionlessly pulled off the bloody armor from Liam's body with his own hands.
If the original destiny did not change, then the destined master of the Holy Armor would only be him, and it was precisely because of this that he found the weakness of the Holy Armor.
"At your word, Liam, I will defeat him and I won't fail a second time."
After Francis finished speaking, he had already pulled off the holy armor and shield. The red fire of purgatory burned and swallowed up the red blood. William rushed to the ring and looked at Francis. With a strange expression on his face, he looked at Liam at the same time, wanting to take out the magic lamp and make a third wish, but a bad premonition flashed in his heart.
It's not that William is stingy with his third wish, but that this wish cannot be granted and Liam must die.
A game where heroes compete with each other to find a winner. The winner will get everything from the loser, not only the armor, but also the favor of the opponent's fate. In Eastern terms, it means taking away the opponent's luck. .
The power may be resurrected through the power of Aladdin's magic lamp, but this will also attract the attention of the gods. Liam, who has lost the favor of fate, will not be able to have a backlash from fate even if he is killed directly.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
William came to Liam's side and supported his body. Liam, who had taken off his armor and was wearing white clothes, was covered in blood. Even he could see that Liam's death was destined.
"William, you're here. I'm sorry, but my promise hasn't been fulfilled to you yet?" Liam said with a wry smile, his body gradually getting colder, his blood was constantly losing, and his smile was forced.
William didn't know what to say. Just as Liam said to him, although this world has miracles, miracles have very strong limitations, whether it is the mythical era of Greece, the Pantheon era of the ancient Roman Empire, or Or now after the advent of the great Father God, humans must adapt to aging and death.
As long as mortals live, no matter how they gain the favor of the gods, all they can gain is immortality, not eternal life. The gods are particularly stingy with miracles above the third level, and as long as the body dies, Heracles, Adonis, and Gnumed Both Si and Memnon can be promoted to gods and become fourth-level or even fifth-level gods.
The eyes of the Celtic gods and the Irish Christian saints are watching here. Once Liam is resurrected in public using the power of Aladdin's lamp that does not belong to the Christian world, then William's own existence will be in danger.
Recognizing your mission and strength, and honestly being a tool for fate, is the way to survive to the greatest extent possible.
Liam's consciousness became blurry. At this time, he had already felt the approach of death. Even if he escaped and escaped the initial fate of death, he could not really prevent it from coming.
He seemed to have returned to the scene when he led an army of three thousand on an expedition, and the memory became clear again. It was not a female old druid, but a crow fell from the branches of an oak tree, and the female old druid transformed. Yi.
"As long as you are brave and fearless and never back down, you will surely receive supreme glory on the battlefield. Every soldier is worthy of the name of a hero."
Liam thought of the first half of the prophecy spoken by the other party in his mind, and blurted out the second half, "But if you escape from the battlefield, it can bring life to the entire country. If you leave with the treasure, there will be miracles, but death In the end there is still no escape.”
Liam woke up with a start. He found that his body had lost body temperature, but he was still alive. It was a reflection of his past. Because his promise had not yet been fulfilled, he was still able to speak and fulfill this promise.
"William, if you want to be resurrected, you must not resort to pagan rituals. You must be resurrected within three days. This time cannot be more or less. Samhain is a period of time that does not exist, because these three days It’s human time, you must be resurrected and return to your village within three days.”
Liam grabbed his hand. At this time, because of his death, he saw through the fog of fate that he had been unable to see through when he was alive, understood the arrangements of the Celtic gods, and even saw William's fate.
"Resurrection within three days!" William said in surprise. He is now in a state of life and immortality. Once Samhain is over, he will completely become dead. However, the timing of resurrection within three days is really a coincidence. .
Three is a sacred number. In Celtic mythology, the goddess of war is a trinity, the Irish goddess of kingship is a trinity, and the god of crafts is a trinity. Even the Christian patron saint of Ireland has three. Greek mythology and Nordic The goddess of destiny in mythology is also a trinity, and the Christian God is also a trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
According to the Bible, Jesus was resurrected on the third day after his death. He must be resurrected within three days. What does this foreshadow?
"Yes, he will be resurrected within three days." Liam said with certainty.
"But what should I do?" William asked. The gods in the mythical age would rather take the dead hero to the world of gods in heaven to enjoy eternal life than resurrect him in the human world.
Hercules lost his body and soul in the flames and became a god in heaven. Adonis only accompanied the God of Love and the Queen of Hades after his death. Diarmait was even taken over by his adoptive father, the God of Love, Ongu after his death. Si was taken to heaven to fight.
In the Bible gospels, Jesus also performed miracles and resurrected three people from the dead. In short, resurrecting people is possible for the gods, but they are absolutely unwilling to easily break the rules of the entire world and resurrect humans.
"Francis is a very powerful opponent. After my death, you will be his biggest target and his destined opponent. If you want to defeat Francis, the man of steel, you must be powerful enough." A weapon that breaks the magic of dragon blood."
"Then what is this weapon?"
"It's the Holy Grail and the Holy Spear. The Holy Grail can resurrect you, and the Holy Spear can make you invincible."
"But where can I find the Holy Grail and the Holy Spear?"
William asked blankly. The Holy Grail and the Holy Spear were not ordinary things. Liam had a silly smile on his face. "The Holy Spear is hard to find, but the Holy Grail is very easy. There was a king who spent his whole life looking for him." , you don’t even need to look for it, the Holy Grail will come to you, right?”
William looked in the direction where Liam was looking. A young man was standing in front of him, "King Arthur."
