Chapter 127: The Way of Judgment, a Gift from the Chief of the Federation!
?In front of Xia En, the white mist continued to break, twist, and reorganize, gradually forming a scene that existed in history.
Before the cliff.
?The man whose face he couldn''t see clearly walked up to the giant as tall as a mountain and asked with suppressed anger.
“King of the Cyclops, I regarded you as a respectable elder...”
“But why did you betray my trust and attack my crew?”
??The Cyclops King cast an icy gaze.
“Ven Moriarty, don’t you understand?”
“We are not equal creatures, and the peaceful coexistence you talk about is just a naive fantasy!”
“After opening the door to the treasure, the key naturally loses its use.”
“Now, I give you the last choice...”
“Surrender, or die!”
?His voice fell, and his voice rumbled like thunder.
?That substantial pressure seemed to span countless years. Even if Xia En was just a bystander, he couldn''t help but feel shaken and his body trembled slightly.
In response to this, the man named "Wayne Moriarty" let out a sigh.
"Although you are a king, you do not have the bearing of a king. Your stupidity will also kill your subjects."
“Then I will judge your sins.”
With that said, Wayne pulled out the long sword from his waist and walked unswervingly towards the giant king who was ten times his size.
“This is the time for judgment!”
–
For a moment, everything in the fog seemed to stand still.
?The airflow, dust, even the body of the Cyclops, the blood flowing in the veins... seem to have become an extension of a certain will, executing the orders he issued.
This sword is called [Judgment]!
In an instant, a brilliant sword light slashed down from top to bottom.
??The originally rough and uneven cliff seemed to be smoothed away by the light of the sword without any hindrance, leaving only a smooth and mirror-like cross section.
At the same time, a clear blood line appeared between the eyebrows of the Cyclops King.
Immediately, his huge body suddenly split into two.
With a loud bang, flesh and bones collapsed like a building.
??The red blood almost turned into a lake, constantly seeping into the soil and turning into nutrients for the entire island.
Xia En stared at this scene blankly, but he vaguely caught something.
The essence of this sword skill is perhaps a [ritual]?
Only higher-level beings can "judge" and "adjudicate" lower-level beings.
∣ is actually out of the way by regarding oneself as some great will that transcends the material world, and then borrowing the power hidden in this world, to burst out with astonishing power.
The moment he realized this, a mysterious enlightenment arose in his heart.
【Acquired Skill: Sword of Judgment! 】
【Quality: Epic】
【Type: Skill】
【Current proficiency level: Beginner】
【Description: This is a unique sword skill you learned from Wayne Moriarty''s battle. 】
【It contains the artistic conception of "the way of judgment". If you continue to advance on this path, you can master the power of part of the "field" in advance. 】
【In an era when secret professions have not yet been clearly divided, extraordinary people groped along different paths. 】
【The "Way of Judgment" is exactly one of these avenues. 】
【At this moment, it is time for judgment! 】
Not long after, Xia En came back to his senses. Only the decayed giant corpse and the smooth rock wall were left in the mist.
“Epic skills, the way of judgment…”
?Xia En’s eyes flashed with excitement.
He didn’t expect that just in the process of going deep into the isolated island, he would have such unexpected joy.
??If you really want to say it, this should be the first epic skill that Shane has obtained.
As for the saying "The Way of Judgment", he has also heard about it.
This is actually an older way of dividing power, and among some people, it is also called “the Way.”
Each secret career is actually a detailed branch of different paths.
?However, what Xia En cares more about is the description of mastering the power of [Field] in advance.
Even third-level mystics such as Carles and Quinn have not yet come into contact with the real power of the domain, which is enough to show how powerful this power is.
“The future is promising!”
Shaan’s lips curled up into a smile, and he quickly thought of another question.
“Ven Moriarty, this name...how do you feel like you’ve heard it somewhere before?”
Hearing this, An suddenly thought of something and took out a cardboard book to write.
【Wayne Moriarty...is that federal chief Wayne? 】
“…Federal Chief?”
Xia En was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered the legend about this character. It is said that this person is one of the founders of the Federation and the strongest person in the Federation!
At the beginning, when the Federation conquered various islands, it actually encountered great resistance.
After all, the governor of each island is equivalent to the emperor of the island and has supreme power. Why should he obey the management of the federation?
?Just when it became difficult for the federation to continue its advancement, the federation chief took action.
He led the federal navy to capture more than ten large islands in just six months, and defeated the super-large pirate fleet that was ravaging the sea at that time.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
With the strength of this chief, he could have become the ruler of the Federation and held the authority of the Seven Seas.
However, when Wayne''s reputation and strength reached their peak, he chose to retire and rarely appeared in front of others.
?His most recent appearance dates back to a large federal ceremony five years ago.
Some people say that as Wayne grew older, his strength was not as good as before, and he suffered from injuries, so he had no choice but to retire.
Some people also say that he is trying to climb the last step of the "Long Step to the Gods"!
But no matter what.
The title "Federal Chief" has become an exclusive nickname for Wayne Moriarty.
“It’s actually him...”
?Xia En was secretly surprised.
?However, the words and deeds of the man in the mist were also in line with his imagination of a strong man like the "Federal Chief".
??If you were the chief of the federation, would it not be impossible to kill the Cyclops on the entire island?
only…
“It seems that the [Ember Treasure] on this island has been discovered by the Federation Chief.”
?Xia En sighed, feeling a little regretful.
?From the conversation in the afterimage of the past, it is not difficult to guess that both the Cyclops and the Federation Chief know about the existence of the [Ember Treasure].
?Furthermore, the Cyclops seemed to want to use these outsiders to open the door to the treasure, and attempted to kill the donkey, which is why this killing incident occurred.
?Shane guessed: "Maybe... Wayne Moriarty is also the holder of the [Salary King''s Certificate]?"
?In the early days of the Federation’s expansion, it was precisely because of the [Ember Treasure] that we were able to master technology beyond the times and crush ordinary islands.
If the chief of the federation holds the [Salary King''s Certificate], all this will have a reasonable explanation.
It’s a pity, it’s a pity, we’ve come this far, there’s no reason to turn around and leave.
Shaan looked up and looked ahead.
He saw an ancient dark door where huge skeletons stood, quietly waiting for his arrival.
Soon, Xia En led one man and one dragon into the door.
A dark red light ignited along with the ember-like lines on the door.
The unfamiliar yet familiar burning sensation briefly appeared, and when they opened their eyes again, they came to the interior of the [Ember Shelter].
The scene here is not far from the style of the previous shelter.
The mysterious pale floor and ceiling exude a cool halo, with a strange sense of technology.
The painting style is completely different from that of most existing islands.
But after looking around, Xia En''s mood sank to the bottom.
There is no other reason.
Compared with the shelter in [Coral City], this place is really too spacious!
?Each room is empty, with only some discarded sundries and containers, proving that this place once contained some good treasures from ancient times.
Having psychological expectations in advance, Xia En was not too disappointed and planned to check all the rooms and leave.
At this time.
?Xiange suddenly became excited, with a pair of big eyes full of energy, and he said while leading the way.
“Captain, this way, this way!”
“I have a very good nose, there must be something good here!”
Xia En’s mouth twitched, and he complained in his mind: “When did you still have the characteristics of treasure hunting?”
“Or is this the instinct of dragons?”
?Even so, he still followed him with hesitation.
Not long after, they reached the deepest part of the corridor.
?The door to the room on the left is closed, but the door on the right is open.
?Xia En looked intently, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
?There are several things that exude extraordinary auras placed in this room, and there is an envelope on the table.
Without much hesitation, Xia En walked to the table, opened the envelope and checked it.
The handwriting of this letter appears vigorous and powerful, it reads.
【To the latecomers who explore the treasure of embers. 】
【I regret to tell you that I have already taken advantage of this treasure. 】
【It took the crew and I three days and three nights to empty this place! 】
【But treasure is a first-come, first-served thing. I guess you won''t blame me for this, right? 】
【However, being able to find this isolated island in the mist after me is considered a destiny. 】
So, after much thought, I left you a little gift, I hope you like it. 】
—Wayne Moriarty. 】
