No wonder the Azure Orb reacted, it turned out to be this thing.

On the side, Brandon also began to explain: "In addition to the abyssal derivatives and high-concentration mad dragon virus that you gave to me, Joshua, we also specially purchased a few bound mad dragons from the far south. Dragon beast."

He held a cylindrical crystal column in his hand and showed the black crystal sealed in it to the warriors and others. The blond swordsman looked extremely proud: "Some of these dragon beasts also have chaos similar to the derivatives of the abyss." Parasites release weird fluctuations and poisonous gases that can make ordinary monsters go crazy. They are like pathogens that infect dragon disease. Through experiments, we found that these parasites can fuse with each other. Each time they merge, the parasites they release will The fluctuations and poisonous gas will become more powerful, simply increasing exponentially. In order to explore the reasons for this, we... "

"Then, you put all the derivatives and parasites together, and finally took out this thing from the fused monster?"

Joshua interjected, his eyes focused on the black crystal, his face very serious: "But, do you know what the use of this thing is?"

"certainly."

Brandon frowned slightly. He was just about to talk about this matter, but was interrupted by the soldier. However, it was just a small matter, so the swordsman sorted out his thoughts and continued: "We are on the southern border. Experiments have found that as long as it is not isolated and sealed by a crystal, when the crystal is exposed to the air, the breath and fluctuations it spreads can attract all the crazy dragon beasts within a radius of dozens of kilometers, and these dragon beasts will involuntarily move towards where it is. The direction is gathering, and on the way, even if you attack them, there will be no resistance, it is simply the perfect bait!"

Speaking of this, Brandon looked very excited. He fully understood the concept of this - with this thing, it would be almost impossible for the empire's frontier to be attacked by wild dragons. As long as this crystal was exposed, there would definitely be a large group of dragon beasts. Converging in its direction, Imperial forces could attack at will during this period without even suffering a counterattack.

This is a strategic treasure. It can even be said that with it, you have the initiative to fight against the dragon beast.

"You're right."

Joshua also agreed with this opinion.

However, he asked another question: "But Brandon, at what cost?"

"Do you know why the mad dragons naturally gather together because of this crystal? In other words, do you know why this chaos, this crystal, attracts the mad dragons?"

"… have no idea."

The blond swordsman was stopped by the question. He hesitated for a while, and then wanted to explain: "But we are studying... This process cannot be accomplished in one step. After this celebration, I will bring several members of other associations with me." The Archmage once again went to the southern border, and even to the Far Southern Kingdom, to experiment with the efficacy of this crystal and study its principles."

"It will be too late by then, my friend."

Joshua shook his head. As expected, Brandon and the others were not aware of the real effect of this Chaos Heart. In fact, whether it was attracting mad dragons or tempting them to move in the direction where they were, it was just a small trick. Just a minor side effect.

This strange object, which is condensed from countless chaotic forces and is almost the crystallization of divine power, has the greatest function of evolution.

Joshua still vaguely remembered that in his previous life, when the abyss invaded and countless monsters roamed the world, due to the density of the monsters, it was difficult for any force to completely wipe out the nearly endless abyss monsters. There would always be some residue, and Those monsters that were lucky enough to survive relied on devouring the corpses of their own kind and absorbing their remaining power to grow.

In this way, after several great battles, the human forces uneasily discovered that although the number of abyss monsters had decreased, their quality had grown rapidly. Those small evil monsters that were originally black iron-level militiamen could easily be killed. Within a few days, they all upgraded into crazy demons. The sudden surge of pressure even forced the human forces that had the upper hand to stay in the fortress city and retreat to the base camp.

This situation is naturally abnormal. All major forces quickly sent teams of gold-level or above experts to explore the cause. The result of the investigation was that an unprecedented monster appeared in the base camp of the abyss monsters. It would emit a This kind of strange fluctuation attracts other monsters to come to their side, and then strengthens their power little by little. It is precisely because of the existence of this monster that in a short period of time, the abyss monsters have the ability to counterattack.

Because he was extremely uneasy about this ability, a legendary swordsman in the Western Mountains at that time, the holder of the holy sword 'Sword of Silver Mistatin', La Motte Ternan personally took action and annihilated a monster. swarmed, killed one such monster, and obtained the core within its body.

According to Ternan's description, the appearance of this monster is like a giant cone-shaped pillar made of countless corpses. It uses white bones as a carapace and rotten flesh as a filling to protect the crystal-like core structure inside, row by row. The huge, squirming eyeball stretches vertically from the top to the bottom of the tower, as terrifying as a demon. Scholars at the time named it the Demon God Pillar, and the core of it is the heart of chaos.

The Heart of Chaos that Brandon and others obtained by accident was much smaller than the real Heart of Chaos. You must know that the Heart of Chaos obtained by Sword Master Tiernan at that time was as big as a human head, and this one was only a thumb, but Even so, it is the heart of chaos. If the blond swordsman and others really take this thing to go around the place where the crazy dragon beasts are densely packed, and stay for a while, they may not help the other party to evolve collectively.

Thinking of that scene, the warrior couldn't help but shook his head - in the final analysis, this was the change he brought about. The dragon disaster in the previous life had never encountered such a thing from beginning to end. The appearance of this Chaos Heart was due to him, Joshua. share of responsibility.

As someone who had been through it all, Joshua felt it was necessary for him to teach them some life lessons.

"Brandon, I feel like I need to tell you this."

Without hesitation, the warrior spoke directly. He said to Brandon, who was a little confused: "Whether you believe it or not, but I know the effectiveness of the thing in your hand. What you just said is only one-sided of its ability, or even only It can be regarded as a derivative effect, but its real function is... "

Joshua briefly and concisely explained the ability of the Heart of Chaos to Brandon. He did not say where the information came from, but simply said that if the swordsman and others really took this thing to the southern border or... As for the consequences of the Far South, it was good luck that their experiment did not have any negative consequences last time, but that may not be the case next time.

"I don't force you to believe..."

"No, I believe it."

Joshua ended with these words, but was interrupted by a voice from the other side.

After listening to what the warrior said, the blond swordsman broke from his previous silent listening and agreed decisively.

He nodded slowly, thoughtfully. After a while, Brandon spoke again: "Is this the knowledge passed down by the sages... Sure enough, Joshua, you have received part of the inheritance from the Azure Orb, right?"

When Joshua heard this, he couldn't help but be startled. He originally thought that the other party would be suspicious. After all, what he said had no source and was extremely brief. The soldier originally planned to wait for the celebration and then go catch a madman with Brandon. Long experimented to prove that what he said was true, but who knew that the other party seemed to believe what he said without any hesitation at all.

And it looks like there were some wonderful misunderstandings.

Brandon raised his head, his eyes far away. He put his hands on the double blades of order at his waist, and his thoughts seemed to drift back to the past: "A few months ago, I was in this laboratory experimenting with other great mages. At that time, the double blades of order suddenly had an inexplicable resonance. At that time, I was a little confused as to why it was so, but the vibration of the double blades seemed to tell me that there must be someone, a person who also holds the inheritance of the saints. With one step, I gained a deeper inheritance.”

After saying this, the blond swordsman lowered his head, looked directly into Joshua's eyes and said, with a smile on his lips, as if he was excited to prove his guess: "There are many things inherited by the saints, but I But I feel that only you can do this... When Moldova was fighting against the God of Desolation, you knew the true name of the Double Blade of Order earlier than I did. If you hadn't received the inheritance from the sages, there is no way to explain this."

This logic is perfect - even Joshua can't refute it, because he has indeed obtained the inheritance of the sage. Just today, the warrior saw with his own eyes the remnants of the sage's power in the Azure Orb, and witnessed the ancient strong man. The phantom of childhood.

On the opposite side, Brandon had already taken back the Heart of Chaos. He put the black crystal sealed in the crystal column back into the cabinet, and then locked it. The swordsman said with some pity: "Originally I thought I had found an easy way to deal with the dragon beasts, but it turned out that it was not that simple... Thanks to the inheritance left by the sage for reminding me, otherwise the dragon beast group would really evolve collectively because of this, then I would be able to He is truly a sinner of history.”

"There's no need to be so nervous."

Joshua shrugged and consoled him. When the Heart of Chaos returned to the sealed cabinet, the azure orb on his chest no longer vibrated because it lost its target: "After all, the Chaos Crystal in your hand is not big. It's probably as simple as letting a group of dragon beasts evolve, and I'm just telling you about this possibility."

He wasn't going to explain that he didn't actually receive much knowledge from sages. Anyway, it wasn't bad to have such a reason.

"It's probably best not to have any. You know, the southern border is facing the Central Black Forest. They are already under great pressure." Shaking his head, Brandon said with a smile: "You may have found Tianqing. The inheritance method of the orb, but I have been unable to communicate with the twin blades of order, what a pity."

Having said that, looking at the blond swordsman's expression, it didn't look like he was really feeling pity.

But Joshua had a vague idea. He squinted his eyes and looked at Brandon's waist. After thinking for a while, the soldier said: "Brandon, can you show me your knife?"
