"Was the Tower of Shining Wings built in that era?" Ye Zi asked.
"That's not the case. The situation was very complicated."
"What do you mean?" Ye Zi was very interested in these past events. Mei knew many of the questions she had not found answers to even after searching the entire reading room. Even if it had nothing to do with Shadow Gun, it was still very moving to listen to.
Mei rarely stopped to think, as if looking for the right words: "The Temple of Nature has the support of a true God behind it. Although it is asleep, it will wake up one day. But we no longer have a God behind us. So no matter how hard we try, the Temple of Nature will develop much faster than us.
Imagine that you are a strong person, would you like to join the temple backed by the true God, or join us, a group of people who have lost our protection
What’s more, our most loyal ally, the Temple of War, broke with us after the decisive battle at Cloud Peak. They accused us of not fighting the Temple of Nature to the end, until the last man. This split caused us to lose two very powerful saints.”
"But that's too cruel. I don't know what the war between gods is for, but this war itself is definitely a tragedy. We have a saying that war is an extension of politics. If the political goal has been achieved, continuing the war loses its meaning. More and more deaths will only add more pain to this tragedy."
Mei's eyes lit up, and she looked at Ye Zi again, and said leisurely: "It seems that you have received a very profound education. If the high-ranking angels back then heard what you said, they might agree with your ideas."
"I'm just an ordinary student. I can't compare to Xiao Chen, Li Jia and the others, not to mention the teachers. I just think that since we are at a disadvantage in this round of war, we should conserve our strength and then slowly look for opportunities to become stronger. Instead of acting on impulse and burying our last bit of strength."
"No, you are not ordinary at all. You have already touched the core of the problem." Mei's eyes were full of approval. "Similar to what you said, in the eyes of the high-ranking angels at that time, the decisive battle between the Temple of Nature and us only dispatched two-thirds of the saints, not to mention that they had far more low-level warriors than us. If we continue to fight, the war angels will be destroyed, and the last inheritance of the God of War will be lost.
Even if these 100 people sacrificed themselves and dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, it would only give the Temple of Nature a chance to completely destroy us and dominate the world. On the contrary, as long as we can persist and survive, the legacy of the God of War will be there, and there will be hope for the rise of the War Angels.
Facts have proved that the War Angels made the right choice. The two saints and a large number of masters of the Temple of War finally died in the raid on the Temple of Nature, but we survived.
Later, the power of the Temple of Nature grew stronger and stronger. They even began to ignore the truce agreement and began to secretly harass and attack us. Many angels died in their sneak attacks, including two high-ranking angels. We almost lost the inheritance of Sariel and Anar. "
"Is it the Shadow Group?"
"Yes, the Shadow Group was originally established to attack us secretly."
"So you two have a grudge against each other."
"Hmph. I guess so." Mei sneered, with undisguised contempt between her brows. "At that time, the people of the Angel Council felt it necessary to unite with other forces to resist the approaching Temple of Nature. They made two choices. One was to turn our group into a magic tower and form an alliance with the magicians led by the Seven Holy Towers, who were becoming more and more powerful. The Sword Tower among the Seven Holy Towers has a great relationship with us. We provided many secret methods of practicing magic and martial arts, and they returned the secret method of using magic to drive out martial arts, and included us in the alliance.
The second is to intervene in the politics of secular kingdoms, provide them with talents, and even form marriage alliances. You must know that the war angels are the followers of the God of War, and their natural bloodline is as strong as that of the elves. They are superior to ordinary humans in both appearance and wisdom. Although there is the Temple of Nature, many kingdoms throughout the ages have accepted our people. The combination of these two methods finally led to the establishment of the Tower of Shining Wings. "
"Have you managed to curb the pressure from the Temple of Nature?"
Mei nodded and said, "At least the Tower of Shining Wings is still there."
"I think you guys are having a hard time."
"So we need you, the goddess, to come back and lead us. Let's continue practicing!"

Ye Zi did not use Dou Qi during her training. At this stage, her recovery was mainly based on physical strength. She slowly finished a routine with the big spear and sat down to regulate her breathing.
Mei watched her entire set of movements and commented, "It is indeed an interesting gun technique, but it does not seem to match the fighting spirit. When you fired the gun, you did not consider how to use the external fighting spirit at all. Most excellent fighting skills consider using fighting spirit to extend the length or width of the weapon."
"Ah, that's true, but I'm not yet at the stage where I can release my fighting spirit. When I get to that stage, I can modify it myself."
"That's a correct idea. Any combat skill is designed to suit a person. Metatron's dual swords have a set of matching combat skills, but each inheritor uses them very differently because everyone's physical conditions are different, their strength and agility vary greatly, and their magic skills are also different, so everyone will modify some of the movements.
However, the premise for being able to modify it well is that you have referred to enough other good combat skills."
"But I rarely see this kind of information, and I have nothing to refer to. Are you going to teach me this?"
"No, you don't know yet, do you? Your Shadow Gun itself is an incredible treasure trove. Wasn't the video of the decisive battle at Yun Dian given to you by the Shadow Gun? In fact, it records countless battles. All the battles that the Valkyrie has experienced, and even the combat skills she has used during her own training, are all preserved by the Shadow Gun. What's more important is that in these records, you can be a part of the gun and easily feel its trajectory and the way it uses force. These are all first-hand experiences."
"How do you know so much?"
"Who told me to aspire to become a Valkyrie? I'm afraid no one in the entire Shining Wing Tower knows her better than me."
"What should I do?"
"As far as I know, you just need to tell it in your mind what you want to see, and it will release the corresponding image."
Ye Zi tried it quickly. She closed her eyes and stood there for about ten minutes. After opening her eyes, she held up the spear and performed a new set of spear techniques. Her movements were still unfamiliar, but her posture was beautiful, and she could see some rhythm of dance from it.
"Yes, this set of spear skills is very sophisticated, and it feels like the style of the elves." Mei commented.
"I suddenly understand what kind of cultivation path I want to take. I will study all the gun techniques in the world, and then learn from their strengths to create my own gun technique." Ye Zi said with a clenched fist.
