Chapter 0878: Wizard Civilization
It's a completely different world!
Every time he travels through the wizarding world, this intense feeling can give Grim a special feeling.
In the previous life, since the source of photosynthetic energy all came from the sun, the climate, environment, temperature difference, dry and humidity of the entire region ...... All factors are hierarchical and rhythmic.
But in this strange world of high magic, the growth of all things in heaven and earth and the topography and landform are affected by the flow of magical energy, showing all kinds of strange and treacherous landform characteristics.
Generally speaking, due to the influence of the high magic environment, the plants and animals here are extremely strong and tall. Tall plants over 100 meters abound, and many of them show a tendency to demonize. As for the animals, they are even more feral and terrifying, which is an eye-opener. Even some of the little white rabbits that were loved by the people of the earth in the past may have evolved into carnivorous magical creatures, which are even more terrifying than the wild wolves on the earth.
Although in such a high-magic environment, humans have evolved to be stronger, faster, more durable, and more muscular, but compared to wild monsters, they are still at a serious disadvantage.
If it weren't for the fact that some of the strong human beings had crossed the limits of physical and spiritual strength and mastered some extraordinary powers, it would have been impossible for human beings to become plane masters.
As for the environment in which humans live and inhabit, due to the abnormal flow and gathering of magical breath, it has also left a cloud of strange traces on the vast land.
The vast Black Forest, the magical swamps of wet mist, the vast deserts that cover the sky and the sun, the desolate and dilapidated wilderness and jungles, the towering and precipitous mountains, and the snow-capped kingdoms of ice and snow......
The wizard continent under the flying ship is like a huge and tiny magical continent, looking from a distance, you can always find some strange places in the deep mountains and inaccessible places. The climate and environment of these places are obviously incompatible with the surrounding regions, like magical pearls sprinkled on the wizarding continent, which is sighing and amazing.
Most of these places are caused by the special structure of the terrain, which causes the abnormal convergence of magical energy. Later, after the vigorous transformation of the wizards, they were turned into resource points that were conducive to the growth of demonic plants or animals.
Since then, there has been a stable, long-term source of the vast number of wizard resources that wizards need!
It can be said politely that the stable and thriving growth of the wizard community is inseparable from the development and utilization of a large number of resource points.
Therefore, when the flying boat flew high above the clouds, taking in the hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers, a strange emotion slowly grew in the bottom of my heart.
Beneath the clouds, the continent's terrain winds and stretches with tall and undulating mountains, some stretching for tens of thousands of kilometres, while others are rugged and steep with treacherous peaks. Scattered human villages, towns, large and small cities, and dotted with lakes and rivers reflect a perfectly perfect human world.
However, this extremely perfect human world is actually controlled by large and small wizarding organizations or forces.
In the wizarding world, due to the existence of large areas of unexplored primitive obscurantist land and vast black forests, it is almost impossible for the kingdom established by humans to resist the invasion of powerful monsters, savage aliens, and mutated creatures without the protection of powerful wizards.
Therefore, there are almost no pure human kingdoms, and most of the city-state authorities will choose to attach themselves to a powerful wizarding organization, and exchange perennial offerings for security, and the two complement each other and blend together.
Therefore, the real owners of this seemingly peaceful and beautiful land are not ordinary humans who work and work on it, but a huge group of wizards who are high on the peak of the pyramid of the human world.
Originally, with the difficulty of the wizard's advancement, this peak should belong to a small group of people who have mastered the ultimate power. But due to the exponential increase in the lifespan of wizards compared to humans, after thousands of years of accumulation, this 'handful' of people has become an extremely large group.
If these guys are still gathered in the wizarding world, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the size of the wizarding continent to carry such a huge amount of demand. Therefore, out of long-term consideration for the development of the wizarding world, either on their own initiative or under compulsion, these top wizards have left the country and gone to the outside of the territory, creating an alternative world in the depths of the dimensional void.
And those who stay in the wizarding world, to put it mildly, are just seeds of the wizarding camp!
Every hundred years, the wizarding world has to send a certain amount of fresh blood to the wizarding camps outside the territory, and in this way to continue the entire wizarding civilization!
…………
Slowly closed the book in his hand.
Grim closed his eyes and silently pondered his knowledge of the entire wizarding civilization.
Although he did not have many secrets of ancient wizards, it did not prevent him from observing and thinking about the development of the entire wizarding civilization from the perspective of a third party.
And this is also a way and a means for high-level wizards to recognize themselves and the world!
If you don't grasp the mainstream of the development of the plane world, and don't fit the original will of the plane world, it is simply wishful thinking for high-level wizards to break through the boundaries of the plane and master the power of the rules of a higher order.
Take Grim, for example!
Since he chose the flame specialization, he could only try his best to master the law of fire.
There are two ways to do this.
One is through years of speculation and practice, constantly polishing oneself and the original fit of the law of fire, and using the accumulation of time and experience to break through the threshold of the rules.
Seriously, most of the creatures on the fire elemental plane are promoted in this way.
However, there are pros and cons to this approach.
The advantage is that once you break through the rule threshold, your own strength can grow by leaps and bounds, and you can quickly become a member of the rule wizards. The downside is that it's a frustrating amount of time. It's not an elemental creature that doesn't have a sense of time, and it's almost impossible to survive that long and painful period of grinding.
Although Grim's life has been greatly extended, he still cannot reach the level of near-immortality of elemental creatures. So, the way elemental creatures level up was obviously not for him.
The second is to use external objects to shorten the process of experience and speculation in disguise, so as to complete the necessary accumulation of the law of fire.
As far as Grim knows, most of the high-level wizards are actively engaged in dimensional conquest, on the one hand, for the development and growth of the wizard camp, but on the other hand, for the acquisition of those 'plane origins' that cherish anomalies.
The origin of the plane is actually the embodiment of the plane law of a plane world.
These plane laws were originally void and extractive, born from the origin consciousness of the plane world, and then woven into a vast net of nothingness that encompassed the entire plane world, encompassing all the matter and life within the plane.
Under normal circumstances, all matter and life in the plane will be born, sprout, grow, grow, age, and die in an orderly manner according to the laws of the plane...... Although every stone, every piece of earth, every life, and every soul has its own peculiarities, they will deduce a different life.
However, behind the real world, there is still a big net that is sparse but not leaky, secretly controlling everything.
And this big net is the all-encompassing and all-encompassing plane law!
However, the above is just a normal situation.
At some point, under certain abnormal circumstances, the law network of the plane world will also appear to be ineffective and the law will be turbulent. These anomalies will often cause the abnormal death of millions of beings within the dimensional world, and then cause the loss and destruction of the law net.
Once this part of the free law power is combined with some matter within the plane, it will form some 'essentia'. The so-called 'essentia' is actually a strange substance impregnated with the laws of the plane!
If such essentia can be obtained, and the power of the plane law immersed in it can be extracted by special means, it will undoubtedly have the effect of half the effort for wizards to comprehend the plane law.
If a high-level wizard doesn't want to survive until the end of his life and not truly comprehend the laws of the plane, finding this essentia is undoubtedly a feasible shortcut!
Within a dimensional world, this essentia is of course very rare.
However, in those plane worlds that have been ravaged enough, due to the invasion of alien races, due to the shock of the plane origin, the probability of the law net being shattered and the essentia will also increase dramatically. Even some radical wizards will deliberately undermine the stability of the laws of the invading plane to actively promote the birth of essentia.
As for the mass death or extinction of dimensional creatures that would result from this process, it is by no means on the list of wizards.
The reason why the wizard community is classified as an evil camp may have something to do with this cruel and terrible act!
Based on what Grim saw and heard in the spiritual illusion alone, all the items stained with the word 'essentia' belonged to the 4th order wizard resources, and wizards below the 4th order did not have the financial resources and strength to get their hands on it.
As for their prices, they are even more worthy of their names, and they are all frighteningly high.
And although he has the assistance of chips, he can shorten the time of experience accumulation by a hundred times when he understands the law of fire, but it is still impossible to succeed without thousands of years of long accumulation.
Therefore, if you are lucky enough to advance to the 4th rank, I am afraid that you will also embark on the bumpy road of searching for the fire attribute 'essentia' everywhere!
After a brief imaginary of his future, Grim adjusted his posture on the chaise longue and let the warm and soft sunlight shine on him, filling his body with something called cozy and lazy.
These days of fighting and killing have always kept him in a state of tension.
There was no urgent goal that had to be achieved on this mission, so Grim saw it as a sightseeing trip, and it was rare for him to be completely relaxed.
