Pirates: I loaded the game panel

Chapter 563 [Dragon Eating the World]

"Bai Ghost, have you finished reading the carvings on those small stones?"

King Farbouti waved to Adrian first.

"Those weird little square characters that look like ants, ordinary people can't understand."

small stone……

The corners of Adrian's mouth twitched slightly. For ordinary people, the text of ancient history is an out-and-out "monolith"!
But who made King Farbouti more than 50 meters tall...

"As for the historical text, let's stop here for the time being."

Adrian came back to his senses and said to King Farbouti.

"Let's talk about the thing you were going to ask me to help with before!"

"……it is good!"

King Farbouti's relaxed expression instantly became serious.

After thinking for a while, the giant king asked.

"Bai Yougui, do you know the status of Baoshu Adam in Elbaf?"

"Know a thing or two."

Adrian said very modestly.

Outside the royal court of giants, the legendary ancient tree that looks like a sea of ​​purple gold beams and a sky-high white jade pillar does have an extraordinary status in Elbaf!
According to the giant named "Vidal" I met on the beach of Elbaf before, apart from special products such as beast furs and giant biological bones, the kingdom of giants mainly relies on "twigs from the treasure tree Adam" , Come to trade with overseas merchants!
A branch of the treasure tree Adam can almost replace ore iron of the same size!

Adrian doesn't know much about the price of ore iron, but he does know that a branch of the treasure tree Adam can be sold for at least two to three hundred million Berries in the overseas black market...

However, looking at Vidal's expression at the time, it seemed that this transaction was worthwhile.

In addition, there will be combat activities similar to "martial arts competitions" in Elbaf from time to time, and the winners will be able to get prize weapons made from the branches of the treasure tree Adam.

These giant winners will also be called "Treasure Tree Warriors".

This is what Adrian learned from the previous [Giant's Challenge] mission, and more than one so-called "treasure tree warrior" has fallen in his hands.

King Fabuti didn't know what was going on in Bai Youling's mind, he just thought that the other party really didn't know, so he told a lot of rumors about the precious tree Adam.

In general, the treasure tree Adam, almost in Elbaf, can be regarded as a [Holy Tree]-like existence!
Adrian patiently listened to King Farbouti's account of the history of the giants' sacrifice to the treasure tree Adam, and then interrupted and asked: "King Farbouti, I don't know whether [Treasure Tree Adam] still has the [Treasure Tree Adam] The title of World Tree]?"

Hearing this, King Farbouti's expression suddenly changed a lot.

"A long time ago, Baoshu Adam did have the title of World Tree, but no one has mentioned this title for four or five hundred years."

King Farbouti said.

"Did you see this information from those black stones? You, like that flat-topped head, can also understand those strange square characters?"

Adrian admitted: "Yes, I also do some research on ancient characters."

After a moment of silence, King Fabuti said again: "Actually, what I told you is also related to the name [World Tree] to a certain extent."

A gleam flashed in Adrian's eyes, and he made a gesture of quiet listening.

A look of reminiscence flashed across King Farbouti's face, and then he slowly told the real secret.

"In the legend of Elbaf, the treasure tree Adam inserted its roots deep into the earth, and then opened its crown to the clouds in the sky. Day after day, time passed, the treasure tree Adam The longer it grows, the higher it props up the sky, and finally opens up the world..."

"Later, the giants living under the treasure tree Adam benefited from the protection from the treasure tree Adam and established the country Elbaf..."

"So in the legend, the treasure tree Adam also has the title of [World Tree]."

Adrian nodded slightly in his heart. This kind of legend fits the primitive atmosphere of the giants very well.

"However, there is another kind of prophecy circulating in Elbaf!"

King Farbouti stared closely at Bai Yougui's face, trying to observe the slightest strange expression from above, but he didn't find anything suspicious.

"According to the prophecy, the tree of the world will collapse, despair will climb out, and the world will usher in a doomsday war towards the end..."

"Desperation creeps out..."

Adrian frowned slightly.

Such a prophecy and legend reminded him of the [Ragnarok] in Nordic mythology!
Since landing in Elbaf, Adrian has encountered countless information nodes that can touch [Ragnarok], [Giant], [Rocky], [Fabuti], [World Tree], Even the [Vidal] that I first met on the beach!
Thinking back carefully, [Vidal], also the god of the forest in Norse mythology, even survived [Ragnarok]!
The "despair" coming out of King Farbouti's mouth at this moment...

"That despair, in the legend of Elbaf, is called [Nid Hogg]!"

The last words of King Farbouti undoubtedly confirmed one point for Adrian.

really!

The legend of [Ragnarok] in the previous life is closely related to [Elbaf]!
Even the "doomsday war towards the end" that King Farbouti refers to should be the last grand war!

The Straw Hat Pirates, represented by the three generations of Straw Hat Monkey D. Luffy, and many affiliated forces, set off a peerless war against the world government that has ruled the sea for 800 years!

Thoughts kept going in his mind, but Adrian didn't show it on his face.

"Then what does [Ned Hogg] have to do with what you said about asking me for help?"

"Of course there is!"

A bitter emotion flashed across King Farbouti's face.

"Recently, Nidhogg has recovered again..."

"recovery?!"

Adrian's pupils contracted slightly, unable to hide the shock in his heart.

"Could it be that the end of the prophecy has arrived?"

"That's not true! It will be another 20 years or so before the legendary ending moment!"

King Farbouti shook his head quickly.

"It's just that Nid Hogg seems to have noticed that the last time [Heavenly King] was driven to take action. It has also been making a commotion recently, trying to climb out from under the World Tree."

Adrian was silent for a moment and asked.

"So, this 'Ned Hogg' is a living creature?"

"Yes, according to the legend, it is a black poisonous dragon named Despair..."
