Chapter XXXV: The Legendary Name I
"Act V: Blood for Blood (The Trialists reverse the ending of Act 4, the Avengers are not destroyed, this scene is passed by default)"
"Act Six: The Name of the Legend"
"Character Template: Hormone (Archmage - Legendary)"
Success Condition: None
Failure Condition: None
"P.S. There is no danger to the trialists in this act, and the trialists cannot manipulate the hormonal action"
Monia carefully read the message of the trial prompt, and the skip of the fifth act was a natural thing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 After all, the fourth act was basically distorted by her and the mastermind behind the church, and the Avengers, who were bound to be destroyed, turned defeat into victory and killed so many Blessed Knights, and the fifth act, which was obviously marked by revenge, naturally could not continue.
But the sixth act made her confused - there were no conditions for victory and no defeat, there was no danger, and there was no way to manipulate the hormones - it didn't work out, and this scene was for her to watch a small movie without danger. The template used changed from Eric Kent to Hormone, which Monia expected, after all, she had long expected that the two were the same person.
"If you don't understand it, there's no way, just improvise."
Thinking so, Monia's consciousness melted into chaos.
Of course, chaos is just a synonym. The truth is that she was swallowed by the forces of light and darkness, which together make up this world. Her consciousness did not die out as it was swallowed, on the contrary, in the process of forming this world, she gained the perspective of the whole world—every speck of dust, every flower, every leaf, even every person, could become her eyes, her ears......
It's a wonderful feeling, she's the whole world, and the whole world is her.
One is all, all is one.
This is the famous quote of the greatest alchemist of later generations, Edward Elzac. Based on this theory, the school of sorcerers was born during the War of the Dawn. Unlike traditional mages who study the changes in the ether, the sorcerer believes that "one is all, all is one" is ether, which is recognizable, and "all" is everything in the world, which is too large and complex, even if a legendary mage is difficult to study thoroughly throughout his life. Therefore, we should start from the "one" and understand the origin of the ether, so as to understand the whole world.
Although Monia chose the Holy Sorcerer as the direction of development in the game in her previous life, the game is a game after all, and although she has some knowledge of this kind of theoretical thing, she is not very cold. Only this time, when she incarnated as the "cornerstone" of the world in the world of trials as a part of the world, it reminded her of the theory of holy magicians in her previous life.
Frankly, the lack of a truly complete theoretical foundation was Monia's main difficulty in creating the school of sorcerers from scratch. This time she incarnated into the world, and to some extent, she experienced the feeling of "one is all, all is one", which made up for the lack of her basic theory and gave her a clearer understanding of the path of the holy magician.
However, Hormonex certainly didn't create this trial space for her to experience the feeling of "one is all, all is one". No matter how powerful a legendary mage is, there is no way to predict that thousands of years later, the mage will develop the branch of holy magician.
His real intentions were...... Monia focused on the lich in the alchemy lab. The Lich was supposed to be Hormonex, and there was only one mage in the entire trial space, the Lich, sitting quietly cross-legged on a plank bed, its eyes lit and dark with the blue flames in it, as if it was meditating.
The word seems is used because the meditating mage is in a half-dreaming state, while the lich does not sleep, and the extinguished blue flame in his eyes means that the fire of the soul is extinguished. This kind of uncertain appearance is, in a sense, very much in line with the description of the mage's state of meditation and half-dreaming.
I watched the lich meditate for a long time, but nothing changed. With a slight hesitation, Monia puts her perception on the lich, trying to see the meditative world that belongs to the lich from his perspective. In fact, she just tried it with the mentality of trying it at first, but she didn't expect to encounter any resistance, and she directly entered the spiritual world of the lich.
The spiritual world is a symbol of the mage's entry into the higher ranks, and the powerful spiritual power will condense a world in the mind that can be entered and exited by the mind. It is not clear whether Monia exists on a physical level, but on a spiritual level, it is a small world that does exist, and there are schools of mages that also call it the world of mental images.
The Mental World is useless in battle, it is a world that only exists in the mage's mind, and the appearance of the world varies from person to person. There are never two identical worlds of minds, because each person is unique. A unique personality, a unique bond, to create a unique world of mental imagery.
Even though she was mentally prepared, Monia still had a sense of shock when she entered the lich's mental world. On the one hand, because of the bigness, the lich's mental image world is so big that you can't see the edge at a glance; On the other hand, it is because of the scene of the mental world - this is clearly the wilderness where the Avengers are located, but the once noisy town, here is just a dead city that has been dead for many years and is deserted.
This is the real history, and this is the true end of the Avengers.
Monia looked at the dead city and felt uncomfortable. In the trial, she changed the fate of its destruction, but the trial was only a false victory. In the midst of real history, it ended up so bleak and so ...... It's bleak.
As a bystander, how would it feel to be a real time here? I'm afraid it's like this dead city in his heart, full of gloom, full of sorrow, full of despair, and even his heart may be buried with this city.
With a long sigh, Monia's consciousness melted into the dead city.
It is said that the city is a little too much, except for a large number of defenses, it is only a town of a few hundred people. In a conspicuous clearing in the middle of the town, Monia finds the manifestation of the Lich in the world of mental imagery, a boy of eleven or twelve, exactly what Errickent was like in his childhood.
The lich appeared in this form in the world of minds, and Monia was not surprised. The mental world is the most essential reflection of a person's subconscious, and Erikent, or Hormones, is full of sorrow and despair in this life. After the age of twelve, he was imprisoned in a black prison, and after finally escaping, he was chased and killed all the way...... He finally had his own home in the Avengers, with a mentor and an apprentice, but fate still did not let him go, and the spirit he regained was ruthlessly shattered again under the iron hooves of the Knights of the Church.
Although he was nearing the end of his path to becoming a mage, as a human, as an Erikent or a Hormonex, he was really nothing. The mage is also a human being, and the mage also longs for family, friendship and love, so Hormone will unconsciously take on the appearance of a little boy in the mental world - that is before the age of twelve, with a father and mother who loved him, and did not go through all the hardships that followed.
Subconsciously, he might have wished that it was just a dream, a long, real dream.
Seeing the young Errickent, Monia also had a lot of thoughts in her heart, but now is not the time to sigh. She drew her consciousness closer to the little boy and noticed that he was in a meditative state like the outside world, but unlike the outside world, the meditation of the hormones of the mental world made a strange connection with the starry sky at night.
It is said that it is talking about the starry sky, but the stars in the mental world are completely different from the stars in the outside world. In the continent of Aarons, the dawn and the month of July are the creations of the primordial elves, and the stars in the sky are the embodiment of gods and heroic spirits. But in the Lich's Mind World, Monia did not find any stars incarnated by the gods in this starry sky, and above the vast night sky, only three stars hung high.
The first star is the brightest one, but this glare is not comfortable. It was a reddish-black light, and just one glance at it would give a mortal the illusion that the whole world would collapse completely, and countless sorrows and despairs would strangle his soul and reduce him to a walking corpse.
The second star is a dark blue star, and like the first, it is also a demonic star. Even the first time Monia saw it, she had the illusion that the world was frozen and frozen.
The third star is different from the first two, this is a broken star, and the impact of seeing it is far less intense than the first two, but it gives people a more terrifying feeling. To see it is to see death, to see destruction, to see the darkness of the unknown, to see the eternal and unchanging death.
Monia felt the demonic power of the three stars and roughly guessed what their essence was.
It's the law.
The reason why it is said that the archmage is the end of the mortal path is because in the archmage stage, the mental image world is completely solidified, and the growth of spiritual power comes to an end. At this time, there is no point in following the traditional practice of the mage, and the only way to move forward is to feel the laws that are the foundation of the world built by the ether.
The ether is the cornerstone of the entire world, and the cornerstone is arranged and combined according to some ancient law, and the final product is the colorful world of Aarens. And the law of this permutation and combination is the law.
The laws that a mage can comprehend are only a small bits and pieces in the sea of laws, and some mages have deduced from the fact that the gods come from an outer realm that the laws of other worlds outside of the world of Aarens, are different from this one—otherwise the gods would not have entered this world because of the rejection of the laws of the ether.
Just as Monia remembered that she had seen the information about the law before, the eyes of Hormone Ox, who was sitting on the ground, opened extremely abruptly, and the three stars on the canopy burst out with dazzling light together!
The whole world of mental images trembled!
