Nigolan said this, walked out of the room and waved to Xueyue and Abigail.

Xueyue took Abigail's hand and followed silently.

As they walked, Nigolan chatted:

"How much do you know about the human race?"

"No more than you."

Xueyue spread her hands. After all, she and Abigail were not native to this world.

"The human race is a legendary race that completely dominated the continent more than 500 years ago. They are not outstanding in terms of ability. Well... according to the legend of my people, they seem to only taste better than other races~"

"It is better to stop this kind of tradition..."

Xueyue couldn't help but complain.

"Hehe... One of the core elements that make the human race strong is the entire set of technology that has been passed down under the name of [Relic Weapons], as well as the group of weapons that are the crystallization of that technology."

While they were talking, the three of them had already stepped deep into the underground of the building.

Nigolan stopped in front of a door.

It was a large and sturdy door, made of thick metal, with rivets around the door panel, five locks in total, and a door handle that looked heavy.

In the warehouse that is full of life, only this door can make people realize that this is a military facility.

Chapter 192 Golden Fairy

"Here we are. It's all in here."

Nigolan unlocked the door skillfully and pushed it open.

Rumbling--

The heavy door slowly opened with a loud noise, and a damp and smelly mixture of bacteria and dust hit my nose.

It is just like a tomb, the kind of tomb of kings, princes and generals from thousands of years ago, accompanied by a tomb full of burial objects.

There was no light in the room, but it was easy to sense what was on the other side.

Xueyue took out the night pearl and easily illuminated the fairly spacious room.

There were dozens of things that looked like swords neatly arranged and placed vertically against the wall.

At least from the appearance, those are indeed swords. Compared with the long swords generally known to be used for ceremonial sacrifices or sword combat, they are obviously larger in size, and most of them are of the size of two-handed swords.

Although the lengths varied, most were about the same height as the girl, or slightly shorter, and the hilts were also designed to be long, obviously meant to be wielded with two hands.

What is different from ordinary two-handed swords is the structure of the blades of these [swords].

Just pick up any sword and observe it closely, and you will see crack-like patterns on the surface of the sword. If you look more closely, you will find that there is a subtle difference in the color of the sword on both sides of the crack. In other words, this is not a [crack] but a [seam].

Xueyue certainly knew that this was the weapon that the human race in this world used to rely on to fight - the [Holy Sword].

It is not a [holy sword] bestowed by the gods, but a powerful weapon formed by linking fist-sized [talismans] together, like a puzzle, combining the effects of various amulets to produce completely different effects.

"The Holy Sword is a man-made miracle created by the human race for the human race. Only people of the same race who have the qualifications of a Brave Warrior can use it. So, in other words, the current users are those children, right?"

"Yes, sophistry and far-fetched reasoning are the basis of [curse]. Now that the human race has disappeared, we just need to prepare a replacement. Those children are the [Golden Fairy Clan], the only race that can use the same tools as humans and complete the work on their behalf. This is the [Secret] you want to obtain."

Nigolan gave the answer.

-------------------------------------

Floating Island No. 68, Harbor Area.

Here, all the take-off and landing equipment needed for the airship are available, and it can be called the gateway to the floating island.

The sun was about to set and a drizzle began to fall from the sky again.

Clouds that looked like torn cotton were floating nearby, as if they were within reach. If one looked down, one could see through the gaps between the clouds. The entire world that used to be considered the continent, the green of the trees, the blue of the sea, these colors common in other worlds were no longer visible. Although it was blurry, one could only see the gray color formed by the strange turbid sand covering everything.

Xueyue held a transparent umbrella in her left hand to block the drizzle outside, and held Abigail's little hand with her right hand.

Abigail's hands were a little cold at this moment, and her face showed that she was thinking about something deeply.

"Magic power is similar to heat energy. You draw the flame called [magic power] into your heart, ignite it until it is strong, and then take that power out to use. However, this heat will put a burden on the caster's body. Even if you want to obtain heat energy above a certain level, the caster's own vitality will be suppressed. This directly determines the upper limit of magic power that each race can mobilize. To put it more simply, under normal circumstances, the amount of magic power released is inversely proportional to vitality."

Xueyue is explaining the magic system of this world to Abigail.

"In other words, if there is a life form whose body is not obsessed with survival, it can exert a huge force that other species cannot imitate. If such a powerful force cannot be controlled, it will instantly go out of control and cause a huge explosion, which will blow the user and the enemy to ashes. At that time, there will only be a huge hole left on the battlefield, and a holy sword at the center."

Xueyue smiled bitterly.

"As far as weapons are concerned, they are indeed excellent, but..."

That’s right, the so-called [secret weapon] has always been the golden fairies, not the [holy sword]. Contrary to popular belief, those children are the [consumables].

"However, I still don't want to agree with this. Or rather, I don't want to watch this happen naturally and remain indifferent, even though I know that this is the result of the world being forced to choose!"

Abigail's grip tightened, her mood reflecting the words she spoke.

Abigail no longer wants to see any children bear the fate of death because they have no choice.

"Oh, that's quite impressive, Abi-chan~ Indeed, now that we are here, we can't just sit there and watch. We can't just say things like [Great, since you expect this, we should be happy about it and wish them well], [Wuhu, you guys are awesome! The rest is up to you, keep going!] If we don't become [nosy] adults, then we will be completely useless adults~"

"Sister Xue, calling yourself an "adult" with this appearance is not very convincing..."

"I think it's OK as long as I'm old enough. Besides, it's easy to change my appearance if I want to..."

Xueyue and Abigail smiled at each other.

Abigail felt relieved. Since her sister Xue said so, she must have a solution.

Abigail was so sure of this for no reason at all.

A beam of light shone through the clouds overhead, indicating that an airship was approaching.

"It seems that the person we are waiting for has arrived."

Xueyue immediately understood that it was the military transport boat that she needed to pick up.

The airship approached the harbor area, making heavy metallic sounds.

The impact-absorbing plates let out a series of wailing sounds, the three pairs of anchor arms were fixed in sequence from back to front, the two pairs of rotary wings stopped moving, and the rumbling sound of the cursed energy combustion furnace gradually weakened.

Then, the hatch opened with the help of air pressure, and two familiar figures emerged from the boat.

Chtholly and Asiya were both wearing the military uniforms for female soldiers.

Unlike in the warehouse, Aisiya's expression was serious now, and she was carrying Chtholly with her eyes closed on her back.

"...Ah, Miss Xueyue and Miss Abigail, good night~"

After noticing Xueyue and Abigail, Aisiya's expression and tone immediately changed to the lively and lovely one she usually saw in the warehouse.

"We met in this strange place. Are you taking a walk in the rain?"

The unnatural changes in facial expressions, the awkward bringing up of topics, and the inability to adapt to their current situation would undoubtedly be a "failure" if we were to grade them using the same standards as actors.

Chapter 193 Can you give an explanation?

From Aiseya's point of view, she probably avoided the issue mainly to get away with it.

"Walking in the rain? Indeed, this is quite interesting, but is there a possibility that I came here to pick you up because I received a commission? How about the battle with the Seventeen Beasts?"

Aiseya's expression froze for a second, then she smiled awkwardly:

"So the administrator already knew about this. Ahahaha, even though it was a little dangerous, we won this game after all~"

The fact was indeed as Aiseya said. Xueyue used some tricks to investigate the conditions of the two people and found out that although they looked in a mess, they were just some scratches, and Chtholly just consumed too much magic power, and she would be fine after some treatment.

"It's good if you're all right, but—"

Xueyue nodded and said, and then her eyes did not focus on Aisiya, but extended to the back.

"Can you give me a little explanation? Big Lizard, you didn't even say hello to me, and you didn't even send me a message until you were almost back. After all, I'm also a manager in the warehouse."

White air came out of Xueyue's mouth and her words were calm and slow, but they made Aiseya's hair stand on end. The temperature around her seemed to drop several degrees in an instant. No, maybe this was not an illusion, but the embodiment of the hidden aura of the girl in front of him.

"Uh... Miss Xueyue, it's my fault for not informing you in advance..."

The one Xueyue unceremoniously called "big lizard" was naturally the limestone skin he had seen before. He wiped his smooth scalp as if wiping away non-existent sweat and explained,

"But you have to understand my difficulties. For various reasons, emergency combat missions cannot be notified in advance."

Logically speaking, Xueyue was only a second-class official, which was a [nominal position], while Huiyanpi was a first-class official, higher than Xueyue in both rank and power. But judging from the current situation, it was hard to tell who was the higher-ranking official. Moreover, neither Xueyue nor Huiyanpi thought there was anything unusual about this.

"Wow……"

Aisiya, who had just been shocked by Xueyue's aura, was surprised by the slightly weird scene in front of her and could only utter a low exclamation.

"Hmph... Never mind. I'll take their weapons back with me."

Xueyue snorted lightly and restrained her momentum.

Xueyue is not an irritable person, and such a small matter could not affect her mood at all, but she still had to pretend, not to embarrass Huiyanpi, but to do it for the people above her to see.

Most people at the top of power have similarities. They always try to find ways to test whether the unknown object is a hard rock or a soft persimmon. This time, Gray Rock Skin concealed the matter after taking over. It was obvious that there was interference from above. Xueyue should also make her attitude clear. She is not a person without temper. Don't treat herself as a mascot. If the other party wants to get something, she should show a corresponding attitude.

Xueyue doesn't want to receive several death notices instead of fairy girls one day.

"So, these are the weapons they used. Please take them back to the safe depository and keep them safe."

After handing out two weapons, the huge figure of Gray Rock Skin returned to the cabin in a hurry. The hatch slowly closed, and then the airship made a noisy metallic sound and gradually rose into the air and moved away.

"I didn't expect our administrator to be so imposing~ I've never seen that lizard show such an expression."

Aesiya teased.

"After all, this is related to you guys. It's normal for me to be confused because of my concern."

"Administrator, if you are so straightforward, I will be moved~"

"Then I'll take it all?"

Xueyue smiled and touched Aisiya's head.

"Forget it, I don't want to be the first one~"

Aisiya did not refuse Xueyue's pat on the head, and her smile was as bright as usual, but she secretly glanced at Cordelia on her back.

The two weapons were naturally holy swords, and even though they were wrapped in thick bandage-like cloth, they could still be seen at a glance.

Xueyue handed the umbrella in her hand to the side, and Abigail took it quite naturally, while Xueyue half-knelt down to inspect the two weapons.

"This is [Seniorius], right?"

"Oh, you know that."

Aiseya was a little surprised that Xueyue recognized the name of the sword at a glance.

Of course Xueyue recognized it. This sword had a distinctive shape and she would never forget it once she had seen it in an album. Moreover, this sword was considered to be "famous" in the history of this world.

It severs gods with its left hand and slays dragons with its right hand. It is one of the earliest completed holy swords. It has many nicknames: Copper Dragon Nemesis, God Destroyer, Silver Secret Blade. These nicknames can be listed in a separate book. It is the sword of the eighteenth and twentieth generations of regular heroes of the human race, and is also a symbol of their heroism. It can be said that [Senioris] is the holy sword among holy swords with both history and achievements.

After Xueyue touched the holy sword with her own hands, she truly believed that what this world said was true. Although the holy sword now had some defects in its functions, after it was repaired, in the hands of someone who could exert its true strength, it would at least have the power of an A-grade treasure.

Xueyue looked at the other holy sword - [Valkaris]. Although there were some problems with the functions of the two holy swords, they would be fine after a slight repair.

It's just a simple confirmation of the condition of the armaments. If you want to repair them in detail, you have to wait until you get back.

Xueyue stood up and stretched her hand out of the umbrella. The drizzle had stopped.

He took the umbrella from Abigail and folded it, throwing it casually into the shadows.

"Administrator, the way you collect things with your hands is very cool~"

This once again caused Aisiya to be amazed.

"It's just a little magic trick. Give me your luggage too~"

"What, wait a minute—"

Without giving Aiseya a chance to retort, Xueyue arbitrarily snatched Cordelia from Aiseya and carried her on her back.

"...I didn't expect that you, the administrator, who looks about the same age as us, are still quite strong."

Aiseya didn't expect that Xueyue looked only a few years older than them, and her body didn't look strong, but it seemed much easier for her to carry 15-year-old Chtholly on her back than for herself.

"I've done heavy work before, so it's normal for me to have some strength."
