However, during the process of those Commorian Cabal warriors being transformed by real fire, Soshyan had a very novel experience. This was the second time that he had established some kind of spiritual relationship with other Ada except Veronica.
Through the connection, he saw the depths of their hearts as if browsing countless screens, and also discovered the law of Holy Fire selection, that is, no matter how cruel that person has been, as long as there is still the last piece of pure land in the heart, it can be transformed into
With the power of true anger, there is a high probability that he can pass the test of the holy fire, but Soshiyang always feels that as the highest-level clerical warrior in the former Ada Empire, the standard should not be so low.
Or, because it is the Holy Grail of Asuryan that he controls, the requirements of the True Fire Trial will be closer to his thoughts and heart?
This group of people does have some common characteristics, such as a deep hatred for Comoros and the conspiracy, and there is still some justice left in their hearts that can be excavated and amplified. However, Duran is the most special among them.
He is the only one who has "love" and "remorse" left, and he is also a Dracula.
This was also the reason why he entered the other person's consciousness alone to talk to him. Maybe it was some kind of feeling in the dark. He felt that this was a person who could be entrusted with important tasks.
Mardell said that Phoenix Warriors can absolutely guarantee loyalty because their souls already belong to the Asuryan Fire, and their spiritual world has become an Asuryan Shrine. They are both warriors and priests, and they can
Called a spiritual entity derived from the sacred fire of Asuryan, their consciousness is only loyalty and dogma, as well as the most efficient and magnificent fighting skills.
Based on this premise, Soshyan had a long conversation with Duran alone and told him some secrets about himself and Asuryan. The purpose was to create an executor who could understand his thoughts and plans. If he was not in the royal court, he would be
Someone who can execute his will perfectly.
Although Doral is also capable of this, Mardell and Veronica have reminded Soshyan more than once that Doral has too much power and political influence now, although Soshyan has never doubted him.
He is loyal, but he does need someone to "share" Doral's influence - Duran, who completely obeys Soshyan in terms of soul and will, is a good candidate.
"Everyone, you are now the chosen people of Asuryan. In the ancient past, you were called Phoenix Warriors, but now..."
Mardell paused for a moment and said a new name.
"You will be called the Phoenix Custodes."
After hearing this, Soshyan really wanted to turn around and say, "What are you doing?" because Mardell was talking about the Phoenix Guard before, why did he suddenly become the Forbidden Army!?
The word "forbidden army" is not something that can be used casually. For Soshyan's current identity and position, it is really embarrassing, almost embarrassing to the point of sweating. Does this mean that he wants to... that?
At this time, Mardell's voice sounded in Soshiyang's ears at the right time——
"I thought about it for a moment. Phoenix warriors in the past were similar to religious knights. They served the father god Asuryan, and their duty was only to protect the great temple of Asuryan. Many of them never stepped foot in the temple until the collapse of the great temple of Asuryan.
Taking a step forward, the name Phoenix Guards is not very suitable because of its close meaning, while the Phoenix Guards represent that their identity has changed from paladins to royal guards. The objects they serve and the duties they perform will also change. They are to
I will follow you to the battlefield, so the Imperial Guard is more suitable."
"Then can you tell me in advance next time?"
"I'll pay attention."
Although Mardell's explanation is reasonable, Soshyan always feels like someone is forcibly putting something on his body...
Then, Soshiyang stood up holding the Holy Grail, and all the Phoenix Forbidden Army knelt on the ground and chanted in unison——
Asuryan gave me fire, burning brightly to dispel the darkness
Asuryan gave me a shield, standing proudly to block evil
Asuyan gave me a sword to cut through the sky and destroy the demon atmosphere.
Asuyan bestowed upon me the Dharma, the mysteries and mysteries, and the clear distinction between good and evil.
We are the legion returning from the past
We are the immortal heart of the passing sun
We will trample the stars and our enemies
We will forever defend our dying people
Witnesses of Holy Fire and Fury
We are all one!
"Dulan, I will bestow upon you the name of the Holy Flame Blade, and grant you the position of commander of the Phoenix Forbidden Army."
Dulan lowered his head and replied in a deep voice:
"I will fight until the holy fire burns out the last bit of my soul!"
Soshiyang nodded slightly, turned around and came to the huge brazier burning with blazing holy fire. In the center of the brazier stood the Yanyang Sword. You could see that the runes on the sword were flowing and glowing. There was only Mader, a decent person. Only the ancient "Ada Gods" know such secret ritual steps. Any current Ada may not know that the Yanyang Sword is also the key to making the Phoenix Warrior. Soshyan then poured the Holy Grail, some as crystal clear as diamonds The debris then fell into the brazier, causing the flames to suddenly rise nearly one meter, and the flames became purer and almost transparent.
This is the last step for the Phoenix Custodes. From now on, their souls will be forever bound to this Asuryan Temple. When they die in battle, they will be reshaped here, but they will consume the power of the Holy Fire and a part of themselves. Every time the soul is reshaped, they may lose part of their emotions and character. When they have nothing to lose, it means they can no longer be reshaped. At that time, they will also become part of the power of this holy fire. This is why Duran said that he would burn his last soul.
After doing all this, Soshiyang took out the Yanyang Sword and looked at the Phoenix Forbidden Army. He could feel the abundant spiritual power in them. Now they were not just warriors, each of them could be regarded as a powerful war wizard. This is the result of 6104 candidates leaving only 600.
After that, they will continue to stay here in the temple and receive training from Mardel. Gaining power does not mean that they can use it, especially since they are all from Commorragh, which is a place where psychic powers are prohibited. They still have many needs. Fortunately, they can "enter" the Flame Arena built by Mardel inside the temple, which is a space where time is eternally stagnant, where they can train without being bound by time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The other is the equipment of the Phoenix Forbidden Army. According to Mader, they will wear a set of armor tempered by the holy fire. This armor has a set of armor called "Eternity". The "Diamond" device is actually an imitation of the original Flame Pendant, which can form a psychic shield called a fire shield, and can also allow the user to briefly enter a spiritual state, which can ignore most obstacles. animal activities, and also combines many cutting-edge technologies from the ancient empire, including the "Fire Wings" which are more advanced than the subspace backpack of the dimensional spider and can teleport faster and farther, and are installed on the arm and have the ability to read memory. A "spiritual box" with multiple functions such as imprisoning souls and sealing psychic energy, as well as a mirror of shadow flame that can reflect the opponent's psychic energy or mental attacks.
These things belong to the top-secret knowledge of the Asuryan priests in the past. The Bonesingers cannot make them. Currently, only Mardel in the royal court can make them, so it not only has to train them on their behalf, but also has to do it for them one by one.
To make equipment, these few hundred people are enough to keep it busy for a long time.
In addition, regarding the weapons of the Phoenix Forbidden Army, in the past, due to their responsibilities and dogma, their weapons were mostly pure melee weapons. Now that they need to take the initiative to attack, firearms will also enter their arsenal, but the main weapon is still the disappeared Saint
Flame halberd, this weapon is somewhat similar to the current ghost weapons, but unlike the ghost weapons that are driven by soul stones, the holy flame halberd is directly bound to the user's soul, thus gaining the same flexibility and precision as a limb, while being attached to it.
The holy flames and powerful psychic field are enough to cut off most things in the real and unreal universes.
But these are all handled by Mader, and Soshyan can't help much.
